Joystick Port 1 and 2 no funktion

  Ralph

   Hi all!
   I downloaded 2 games in.d64 format. Unfortunately the joystick has no
   function on either port and I can't play the game. What do I have to do to
   make it work?

   Are you using the official joystick that came with the mini or another usb
   controller?

   If its a port 1 game you need another usb controller as port 1,it can on
   play port 2 games with only one joystick connected.

   So if it's a game on a USB flash drive, we'll need a USB hub (the USB
   flash + two joysticks). Is it correct ?

   That's the best bet. As-is, the Mini is best suited for 1-2 joysticks and
   the built-in games. For using as a C64 computer and loading your own
   programs, you really need more ports: memory stick, keyboard (you can get
   by with the virtual keyboard, but it's not easy), joystick (and 2nd
   joystick for 2-player or games that require port1).

   To support all that, you also need to supply at least 2-2.5A to the Mini.
   You can get hubs that supply that power, so you can run the Mini and
   provide extra USB slots using a single device.
